Meet the Owner of Ashangali Events

Hey, It's Karal!

As Ashangali Events' Creative Director, I use my visionary talent and 20+ years of event design expertise to create sophisticated, personalized celebrations.

I started as a passionate hobbyist in 2006 (thinking I had a real business, but in reality lacked structure). I even quit my "business" and went back to hobbyism for over a decade because I told myself I can't balance a two-year-old, a newborn and my business. I was still the family decorator and planner for adults and kids, and my three daughters always had over-the-top, creative birthday celebrations.

When I came back, I turned my passion and lessons learned into an exceptional full-service real and sustainable business. Known for my keen sense of detail and deeply personal experiences, the design acumen and client care translate into unforgettable, story-rich celebrations.

Also with a strong background in contract and project management, Ashangali Events expertly coordinates every aesthetic and logistical aspect for flawless events.

I'm currently developing a self-paced course to help event designers, decorators and planners transform hobbies into sustainable businesses. In the meantime, explore our current tools to grow your own event business.

✨ Fun Fact: I planned my first large scale event (my mom's surprise 40th birthday party) when I was in middle school with my dad's and an aunt's financial resources.
